Even if you have long hair, there are days when you want to take a break from wearing feminine dresses and get comfortable in pants. If you are having one of those days, you might want to learn a thing or two about what you need to build a menswear-for-womenswear-friendly wardrobe.

The key to mastering the tomboy style is finding basic and classic pieces that fit with the more modern ones in your closet. Think button-down tops and pinstripe blazers worn with sporty footwear. You don’t have to shop in the menswear section, though.
